This medication should not be used during pregnancy. If pregnancy is confirmed, the medication should be stopped immediately as it can cause serious harm to the fetus and newborn. It should not be used in patients with impaired liver function or active liver disease, and if signs of liver dysfunction appear, the doctor should be informed immediately. If there are symptoms of myalgia, muscle weakness, or severe myopathy, the patient should stop taking it immediately and seek medical attention. Careful monitoring is important as muscle enzyme levels may become abnormally elevated. As blood pressure may drop too low or symptoms like dizziness and fainting may occur, elderly patients or those struggling to control their blood pressure should start at a low dose and be closely monitored. There is a risk for elevated blood potassium levels, so patients at risk of hyperkalemia should have regular blood tests. When taking with other antihypertensives, diuretics, or potassium supplements, there may be drug interactions, so consult with a doctor or pharmacist. Rarely, allergic reactions, angioedema, or severe skin rashes can occur, so if any of these symptoms arise, the medication should be stopped immediately and medical personnel should be notified.
